On March 1st, Rev. Carmen Fowler became the President of the Presbyterian Lay Committee and the Executive Director of the Layman. She has previously served as the Co-moderator of the Presbyterian New Wineskins, and Executive Director of the Presbyterian Coalition. Carmen has served in pastoral positions in both small and very large Presbyterian churches.
In her opening challenge to the PLC she said, “There is a Biblical mandate for each of us and all of us to grow up in every way into Christ who is the head; for each of us, as integral and essential parts of the body, to be connected to and coordinated by the One who is the Head; and for all of us to do the work that we are uniquely called and equipped to do in order that the work of God be accomplished in the world. Ephesians 4 captures it beautifully. We, however, have failed to live it out.”
Carmen will take the reins of one of the largest mainline renewal groups from ACR Vice-President, Rev. Parker Williamson. Parker Williamson notes: “Carmen Fowler will bring an articulate, spirit filled, dynamic leadership to mainline renewal.” To hear Carmen speak on the call of Christ to discipleship:
